Thalia

Ariadna Thalía Sodi Miranda (born August 26, 1971), known simply by the mononym Thalía, is a Mexican singer and actress. Her name is linked to soap operas which were the key to her international superstardom. Her soap operas have been watched by over two billion people in 180 countries. For this reason, she is considered as "the queen of soap operas". Thalía has the keys of more than 50 cities in the world, and has toured in five continents, making her one of the most internationally famous Latin singers ever. She has received more than 2000 awards throughout her career for both singing and acting and has sold over 40 million albums worldwide. She has sung songs in Spanish, English, French, Portuguese and Filipino. As well as singing in those languages she speak Spanish, English, and French.

Thalía was born in Mexico City on August 26, 1971. She is the daughter of Ernesto Sodi Pallares, a scientist, doctor of pathology, criminologist and writer, and Yolanda Miranda Mange, a painter and Thalía's manager from 1980 to 1999. She is the youngest of four sisters: Laura Zapata, Federica, Gabriela and Ernestina Sodi. Thalía is of Spanish ancestry. When she was five years old, her father died and this loss had a devastating effect on her. As a youth, Thalia was a good student throughout her school years and studied at the prestigious Lycée Franco-Mexicain whose French-Spanish curriculum made her bilingual at an early age. Thalia said that if she were not in show business, she would become a biologist or psychologist.

In 1981, Thalía started her musical career as a vocalist in the Mexican child group Din Din. She performed in the music festival "Juguemos a Cantar" as a member of the group and later, as a soloist. As a vocalist, she is considered a mezzo-soprano. In 1984, she was cast in the teenage version of the stage production "Grease", being cast in the lead role of Sandy.

Thalía achieved worldwide success in music with her 1997 album Amor a la Mexicana, which is her best-selling up to date. The album was released worldwide, entering the music charts of countries in all continents. However, Thalía's first studio album to be released globally was En éxtasis and the album included her first international smash hit, "Piel morena".
